July 22, 200619 yr I have also posted this on the Official Forums, but this place has a far higher standard of discussion. Quick Find Code 24-25-664-27563599 if you wish to support. This suggestion originated in a complaint I made in the Tech Support forum. The problem is that for monsters such as the Daggonaths under the Lighthouse (i.e. those in multiple combat areas), an internet connection dropout can result in death even for the well-prepared. For example, I recently went cannoning down there for Slayer. Naturally, I was being swarmed, but I had prayer and armour, and so wasn't in any danger. Then my internet connection dropped. I wasn't too worried, as I figured my character could take a minute's pounding without my support. I tried to log in after 60 seconds. 'Your account is still logged in. Try again after 60 seconds'. This was surprising. I tried again, and again, and only got in after 10 minutes, by which time I was back in Falador with only my dmed, scimmy and barrows gloves. I'm not going to cry about items, but leaving an inactive account online for more than a minute is rather unfair. I fully accept the argument that it's necessary to ensure people can't escape pkers by logging, but as far as I'm concerned, if you can't kill an unresisting person in 60 seconds you're probably not going to anyway. Therefore, I propose that, effectively, Runescape does what it says on the tin, and logs out inactive accounts after 60 seconds of inactivity. Or, we can log back in if we're in combat, although the second option probably presents too many technical challenges.

July 23, 200619 yr Author No,the logout is to fast already. It doesn't have a time limit at present, which was rather my point.

July 23, 200619 yr yeah i agree here. It's way too annoying when my internet cuts out temporarily, and then i have to wait ages to be able to log back on, as my account usually stays logged in for about 5 mins (which i count as ages)
July 23, 200619 yr I do agree....Although, If jagex decided to imply this suggestion, then it might effect the auto log which is already short enough... PLAY this awesome game...Clicky
July 23, 200619 yr Agreed. Im tired of getting "You account is still logged in-try again in 60 seconds." In short, support. Currently going for 76 fishing
